What gardeners can help with
Gardeners support garden maintenance, tidy ups and seasonal work. This can include mowing, trimming, pruning, weeding and clearing overgrowth. They can also refresh borders, re edge lawns and manage green waste removal. If you are planning a bigger refresh, a gardener can assess the space and suggest a practical order of work. Provide garden size, current condition and task list, plus any access constraints. Note whether you want a one off visit or ongoing maintenance. Photos and measurements help keep quotes accurate. You can ask for regular visits or a one-off tidy depending on growth and season. Mention green waste preferences and any parking limits so the plan is realistic. If you have deadlines or preferred time windows, include them in the brief.
